Broken Glass
It has been a few months since the accident at the docks and Virgil and Richie are getting used to only having a few meta-humans to fight off. It is pretty peaceful in Dakota now, perhaps a little too peaceful. I do not own Static shock just Jamie, Nichole and my ideas. Enjoy and don't forget to R&R.
It was a beautiful day in Dakota, but not for Virgil. He had woken up late because his alarm didn't go off and was rushing to get ready.
"Virgil come on you'll be late for school Richie is already here" Virgil's father called from downstairs
"Coming pops" Virgil shouted back and grabbed his bag as he ran down stairs.
"Have a good day at school son and make sure you stay in school, the whole day. I don't want you running off if you see trouble you hear me?" Mr. Hawkins said giving his son a serious look.
Virgil sighed, "Yeah pops I hear you."
The two friends headed out the door and started walking to school
"Man ever since he found out I'm Static he won't let me do anything." Virgil complained as they walked.
"Hey at least Ebon and Hot Streak are out of the picture ever since the accident" Richie said.
"True, but I feel like they're not gone for good. I feel like they will return soon."
"Yeah I know what you mean V. I try not to think about it too often if they come back they come back, but one thing is for sure if they do Static and Gear are going to kick their butts" Richie said holding out a fist.
"Defiantly" Virgil said pounding his fist with Richie's.
The two friends arrived at school a few minutes early so they had time to go to their lockers.
"Rich call me paranoid, but I get I feeling something bad is going to happen today" Virgil said turning to his best friend.
"Alright your paranoid…" Richie said, but his words drifted away when he saw something that was behind Virgil.
"Richie?" Virgil said waving a hand in front of his best friends face, "What are you staring at?"
"Her" Richie said dreamily and pointed to someone behind Virgil. Virgil turned to see who it was and saw two pretty new girls walking down the hall. One has flowing black hair, ocean blue eyes and tan skin wearing a light blue tank top and a black mini skirt with black boots. The other has short curly orange hair , green eyes, and light skin wearing a strapless green top a knee length skirt with black flats.
Virgil turned back to Richie, "which one are you looking at?"
"The tan one isn't she perfect?" Richie asked sighing.
Virgil rolled his eyes and looked back at the girls, "yeah she is pretty want to go and talk to them?"
"What? No are you crazy I can't go say hi to her" Richie said snapping out of his daze.
Virgil laughed, "so Mr. super brain can figure the most complicated formulas, but he can't say hi to a girl?"
"That's different when I saw her my mind actually went blank."
"Oh man Rich you got it bad"
Richie was about to shoot a come back to Virgil when the two girls came up to them.
"Hi my name is Jamie and this is my best friend Nichole. We just moved here and don't know where our classes are, do you think one of you boys could help us out?" said Jamie.
"SURE! Um I mean I'll do it. Let me just see your schedules. My name is Richie by the way" Richie said taking each girl on one of his arms. As he started to walk away he turned back to wave at Virgil.
Virgil waved back and went to class softly chuckling to himself. At lunch Virgil is sitting at a table when Richie comes up with a huge grin on his face with one of the girls on each of his arms.
Richie came over to the table and pulled out to chairs, "Ladies"
Both girls blushed and giggled as they sat down. Richie came over to sit by Virgil.
"The morning went well I assume?" Virgil whispered to Richie.
"Totally V Jamie is awesome and so down to earth. I think I'm in love" Richie whispered back putting a hand under his chin as he looked at her.
"Well at least this time it's a real girl" Virgil teased.
Richie playfully shoves Virgil so he almost falls out of his chair, but a figure stops him.
"Watch where your going Hawkins" said a hauntingly familiar voice.
All laughter stopped from Virgil and Richie as the two looked up to see Hotstreak standing there with the usual scowl on his face.
Hotstreak is back! What does this mean for Static and Gear? And what happens when Hotstreak takes one of Static's harmless jokes too seriously? Find out next chapter. To be continued.
